Text Appearing Before Image:
THE CASTLE OF BONCOURT* (1827) DEEAM of the days of my childhood,And shake my silvery head.How haunt ye my brain, 0 visions,Methought ye forgotten and dead I From the shades of the forest uprises A castle so lofty and great;Well know I the battlements, towers. The arching stone-bridge, and the gate. The lions look down from the scutcheon On me ^vith familiar face;I greet the old friends of my boyhood, And speed through the courtyard space. There lies the Sphinx by the fountain; The fig-trees foliage gleams;Twas there, behind yon windows, I dreamt the first of my dreams. I tread the aisle of the chapel, And search for my fathers graves — Behold them! And there from the pillarsHang down the old armor and glaives. Not yet can I read the inscription; A veil hath enveloped my sight.What though through the painted windows Glows brightly the sunbeams light. • Translator: Alfred Baskerville. (324)

Comes the keepers fair daughter, as blooming as May. She enters the cage of the lion; he lies Calm and still at her feet and looks up in her eyes. The terrible beast, of whom men are afraid,Lies peaceful and tame at the feet of the maid.While she, in her tender adorable grace.Is stroking his head as the tears stain her face. * * In the days that are gone, we were playmates so t
